Nor was this all. When the season closed Mlle. Zaretti bought Calico at an exorbitant price. He was shipped to a strange place, where they put him in a box-stall, fed him with generous regularity and asked him to do absolutely nothing at all. It was a month before Calico saw his mistress again. He had been taken into a great barn-like structure which had many sky-lights and windows.
There was a little pause. He did love a horse that old man of the hills. "Trove went home with the mare," he continued. "She recovered the sight of one eye, and had a box-stall and the brook pasture you know, that one by the beech grove. He got home the day before Christmas.
The disease is not frequently treated during this stage, however, and in the majority of instances the condition becomes chronic. As soon as a diagnosis is made the shoes must be removed, the toe shortened with the hoof pincers and rasp and the subject is put in a well bedded box-stall. If the animal is very lame and the inflammation is acute, ice-cold packs should be applied to the feet.
She dresses magnificently," said Mrs. Cranston the younger. "I couldn't help noticing her diamonds last Sunday." "They must have been big, Meg," put in the captain, reflectively, as he was getting himself out of his smoking-jacket. "Let's see, ours is a hundred-dollar pew down near the foot of the side aisle, and hers a thousand-dollar box-stall just in front of the centre.
Her gaze wandered past Bryce to where his Indian pony stood with her head out the window of her box-stall contemplating her master. "Oh, what a dear little horse!" Shirley Sumner exclaimed. "Whose is he?" "'Tain't a he. It's a she. And she belongs to me." "Do you ride her?" "Not very often now. I'm getting too heavy for her, so Dad's bought me a horse that weighs nine hundred pounds.
For several days hay and oats were brought with some regularity. Pasha was even provided with an apology for a stall. It was made by leaning two rails against a fence. Some hay was thrown between the rails. This was a sorry substitute for the roomy box-stall, filled with clean straw, which Pasha always had at Gray Oaks, but it was as good as any provided for the Black Horse Cavalry.
It was an anniversary for him, and a hard one the day his father was shot from ambush a good many years ago, but nary one of us had forgot it. Then he happened to see your pony this same pony you're riding to-day a-standing back there in the box-stall.
Right over he went, spilling some of the paint on himself, but the most of it, I am glad to say, went on the straw in the calf's box-stall. "Oh, Bunny!" cried Sue. "Oh, Bunny Brown!" Her brother did not answer. He had fallen down on his face, and his mouth was full of straw.
If the horse is restless, it should be given a box-stall or turned out in a small lot alone. It should be watered and fed in the quarters where confined. The local treatment consists in applying mild liniments or blisters to the shoulder. It is not advisable, however, to apply a blister if the muscles feel hot and tender. The swelling that results is usually sharply defined.
Next day an astonished junkman stood before an empty shanty which served as a stable and feasted his eyes on a fifty-dollar bank-note. If you are ever up in Westchester County be sure to visit the stables of Alderman P. Sarsfield Martin. Ask to see that oak-panelled box-stall with the stained-glass windows and the porcelain feed-box.
